About Guadalupe

Guadalupe for girls#1248 US

Popular Spanish name that relates to the patron saint of Mexico. It could conceivably, like Soledad and Consuelo, cross the border into multicultural territory, but the name's decline since the nineties would seem to make that less likely.

Guadalupe, literally "valley of the wolves in Spanish," relates to Our Lady of Guadalupe, revered in Latino culture as a protector of the Mexican people.

Pronounced gwah-duh-LOO-pay.

As of October 2026, Guadalupe ranked #4299 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #308 in 1931.
